A spacious 2-bedroom ground floor apartment located on the historic Borough in the centre of the village. NO ONWARD CHAIN. LEASEHOLD.

Flat 5, Horseshoe Court is a well-proportioned 2-bedroom, ground floor apartment in a purpose-built block on the historic Borough, close to the centre of the village and within walking distance of the village amenities on The Borough, including a bus stop. The accommodation is well proportioned and enjoys a good level of natural light with a lovely outlook to the rear of the building across the communal gardens to the water meadow beyond. The accommodation has been well maintained but there is scope to update aspects of the apartment such as the kitchen and shower room according to personal taste. Crucially for the village, there is the additional benefit of allocated parking within Horseshoe Court and the lease was extended in 2020.

Horseshoe Court is located towards the upper end of the historic The Borough, within walking distance of the village High Street and amenities on The Borough as well as public transport links. Downton is a thriving Avonside community with a number of shops and other amenities, including popular public houses and a bustling cafe, The Borough Cafe. The village has a doctors' surgery on nearby Moot Lane and reputable primary and secondary schools, as well as a library, churches, and a leisure centre with tennis club.

For those seeking a balance between a 'work-from-home' and office-based environment, communications in the area are excellent. The local road network, including the A338 and A36, draws the regional centres of Salisbury, Bournemouth and Southampton within striking distance. There are mainline rail services from Salisbury and Southampton Parkway (90 minutes and 71 minutes respectively) to London Waterloo and international airports at Southampton and Bournemouth.

Buyers with an interest in outdoor pursuits will undoubtedly be satisfied by the wonderful surrounding countryside and the New Forest National Park lies approximately 3 miles to the East. There is a choice of local golf and angling clubs in the vicinity and sailing opportunities abound on the South Coast and at Spinnaker Sailing Club at Blashford Lakes, near Ringwood.

Horseshoe Court is located directly facing The Borough with an arched vehicular entrance supplying access to the communal parking area to the rear of the building. The communal gardens flank the parking area and are predominantly laid to lawn intersersed and bordered by mature tress and established flower beds. Beyond the parking area is a further expanse of lawn and flower beds and the garden adjoin neighbouring water meadows.
